lightning speed

(album: Rachel@Pianoland - 2022)

Somewhere far away
In a place I used to know
There's a quiet house, where the blueberries grow
And the internet's slow
Somewhere far away
I am used to missing you
Whisper my name if you'll miss me too

And I'll put on my running shoes (Yeah)
I'll run home to you (Yeah)
Put on my running shoes (Yeah)
I'm coming back to you, lightning speed (Yeah)
I'll run home to you (Yeah)
Put on my running shoes (Yeah)
I'm coming back to you

I'll go three hundred miles
Through the rivers, roads and rain
Until I reach that place where the animals graze
On the hillside for days
See that you're okay
And catch up on all your news
But I've got a life in the south now too

Put on my running shoes (Yeah)
I'll run home to you (Yeah)
Put on my running shoes (Yeah)
I'm coming back to you, lightning speed
I'm travelling like lightning speed (Yeah)
I'll run home to you (Yeah)
Put on my running shoes
I'm coming back to you

I might not wanna settle for the country
And I might not be quite cut out for the town
But I don't have to choose
'Cause I've got running shoes

(Yeah) I'll run home to you (Yeah)
Put on my running shoes (Yeah)
I'm coming back to you, lightning speed
I'm travelling like lightning speed (Yeah)
I'll run home to you (Lightning speed)
Put on my running shoes
I'm coming back to you

I'm travelling like lightning speed (Lightning speed)
I'm travelling like lightning speed
Put on my running shoes
